Penny Farthing

by Erica

Tonight I saw a man riding a Penny Farthing down the streets of downtown Erie. I did a double-take. It was a great sight to see.

I saw a guy riding one of these over by Flatirons Crossing! Wonder if it's the same guy, or if Penny Farthings are making a comeback? It was interesting, he did kind of a running start to get it going, and stepped on a little platform above the rear wheel to get up to the seat. I'd probably crash the silly thing...

Is that Jason?

Scott, the man was older and had a white beard. I can't imagine one of those things would be comfortable riding all the way to Superior on.
